Disclosure

I've already admitted to being a novice, a newbie, an amateur.  I'm learning as I'm doing.  Today I watched a Legacy webinar about blogging.  Among other things, I learned that I need a disclosure statement.  Huh?  I'm not big business.  I'm not even little business.  I'm no business at all.  Apparently, any content I put in my blog, which is public, falls under the guidelines of the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). 

Here it is.  My amateur self made up the first paragraph and I had professional help with the rest of it.  It will always be on the Disclosures page.

Disclosures

Transcribing:
I do not claim to be a master of the English language.  However, I may change the spelling of some words or make changes to grammar and punctuation.  The original item that I am transcribing will be posted with the transcription for your perusal.

I also learned how I can jazz up my blog a bit.  I've adjusted some colors and will make other changes as my experience grows.
